Should dome QBs have an asterisk by their season stats?

[Mr. Scot]

Not that concerned about seeing an asterisk next to their records.

Being able to watch them lose in the playoffs is satisfaction enough for me.

Astroturf is bad for concussions and for the impact through knees and ankles. The weight of a 300 pound man is the same on any surface.

Personally, I think it is a legit question.

Where is easier to throw the ball? In a dome or in Chicago?

I remember a Bears Packers game from the 90s with absolutely ungodly conditions. The wind was so bad that one of the Bears' punts went backwards. Farvre was throwing the ball around like it was a gentle, warm Spring day. He was completely unfazed. Never seen any other QB who could do that.

[Mr. Scot]

My first ever high school game, we played on what was essentially carpet over pavement.

Falling on that sucked. And one of our runningbacks got flipped over a guys back on a tackle (ouch) :(

Anyone that knows football already has an asterisk by them. If there are two great QBs where someone can't choose who is the best, the one that plays in a dome will lose out.

[The Saw]

No, it's called home-field advantage.

Hell yes they should. There is a reason the two highest scoring offenses in NFL history both played in a dome, because it makes it a lot easier for finesse/speed. Brady doesnt play in a dome and has amazing numbers. His season is much more impressive to me than Brees.

Really?

So on the flip side, any defenders who play up north and outside in crazy conditions should have an asterisk for when they shut out an offense.

If it pains ya so much go out and start building a dome in Charlotte you whiners.

[jamos14]

I don't want to Carolina to ever play in a dome. The essence of football is cold weather in December.

No thanks, we prefer real football.

What a zinger there!

All I'm saying is if you complain about the conditions of the game relative to the building, you're pretty much being nonsensical this day and age. Maybe you should have brought that up in the 80s bud :)

Its 2012 and now since all these passing records have been broken, you throw out the dome line? Really?

Its due 100x more to all these bs rule changes that have occurred over the years.

Its not like a dome turned Aaron Brooks into a good QB

[davos]

No thanks, we prefer real football and will complain about people who don't because they play in domes!!

Also...the question posed in the thread is all about stats.

If you really want to be all cute and crap, being a real football fan means getting wins over looking at them pretty stats

Here's a fun fact: 0 remaining playoff teams play in a dome

Thats my point exactly. They all had to leave the dome and then lost. Dome teams can't/don't play the same outside.

[Zod]

He mad

[davos]

Who me? Nah bro, I'm stoned....you're an easy target who complains about stats
